Function
This parameter specifies the maximum difference in following error
allowable between servos of a split axis. This distance is actually the
maximum skew limit.

This distance is the
amount of skew
or
the difference in
following error
between the two
servos.
Axis
Enter for this parameter a value equal to the greatest amount of skew
(difference in following error) that is acceptable between the servos of
your split axis. When the difference in following error between the two
servos exceeds the value set for this parameter, the control is forced
into E-Stop.
ATTENTION: Make sure the value set here is small enough so
that when a skew of the axis occurs, the control enters E-Stop
before damage to the machine occurs.
